No, it's not true.

You can boot from USB drive from desktop too, if you have support of this function. Just try it.

Given this pc by daughter and we haven't a clue. Tried to download some stuff from discs from magazines for my wife but got nowhere and it's all a real mess now. Computer is soooooo slooooow and we are sick of it. What can we do. Know nothing about discs or disks or anything and have no-one to ask. Computer will soon end up in a heap as my wife is getting really mad 'cos she wants some fancy fonts and papers etc for her card making. She is ill and uses it as therapy but we can't buy any of this stuff that's supposed to help.
